USDOT explains infrastructure law's impact on each state


advertisement

The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) yesterday issued fact sheets outlining how each state will be affected by the new $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA).

The fact sheets report how the law will fund the repair of roads and bridges; improve transportation options such as rail; build a national network of chargers to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles; and upgrade airports and seaports.

The IIJA includes nearly $550 billion in new spending to address the nation’s aging transportation networks.
